It would seem that the file functions.php is not being interpreted as PHP
code. Check your server settings to make sure that the file is placed in a
suitable directory for inclusion.

Also, you might make sure that your include file begins with <?php and ends
with ?>. Otherwise, PHP has no way of knowing that your code is anything
other than plain text.
